What can an AI receptionist for salons do?
It answers your salon line in your name when you forward calls to it, while you're with a client or after closing. Like a virtual salon receptionist, it asks what service the caller wants and who they'd like to see, quotes from your price list, offers open times and books the appointment into Google Calendar. You get a recording, transcript and summary of every call.
Can it book clients with a specific stylist?
It asks every caller for a preferred stylist and writes the name in the call summary and on the lead card. Times come from your salon hours, not from each stylist's own book, so if that stylist is off that day your front desk moves the booking. Clients with no preference are noted as any stylist.
Does it take spa booking calls too?
Yes. Add your spa services with prices and lengths, like a lash lift, facial or massage, and the agent books them the same way it books a cut. It asks which service, offers open times and books when the client agrees. Callers asking about a package or a group are saved as a lead with all their details for your team.
Will it quote prices for color and balayage?
Only from the price list you give it. If balayage is $180 to $260 on your menu, that is what the caller hears, along with how long it takes. It never makes up a price. If someone asks about a service that is not on your list, it takes the details so your team can follow up.
How much does a salon answering service cost?
Starter is $149 a month for 300 minutes of AI calls, a business number, website chat, Thumbtack and Google LSA leads, and the full CRM. Pro is $299 a month for 1,000 minutes, three numbers and ten team members. Business is $549 a month for 2,500 minutes when call volume is high. Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial that includes 25 minutes, with no credit card needed.
Can a client still reach a real person?
Yes. If a client asks for someone while your team is on duty, the agent transfers the call to the salon. After hours it takes a detailed message and sends you a Telegram alert. It speaks Spanish too, or any of the 15 languages you turn on, and switches as soon as the client does.
